What does this mean? I am not feeling this at all!

242. Great post.

You have laid it out there.

Bernie's ideology.. One thing I would like to add is that his ideology, actually divides people. In effect, believing that powers in this country USE unwitting citizens, by focusing on specific issues faced by a particular group of people.... That group of people becomes the outsider to the proposed solution. It is an unfortunate bi-product, but one that many white person will accept. Why because it benefits them almost exclusively without having to confront any ism. Bernie needs to confront this. I don't think he will. He is entrenched in this ideology. He truly believes that persons who belong to oppressed groups, need to back burner their concerns in order to resolve what he believes will also solve their grievances. And someday, we will all realize how correct he was. He does not want to really discuss those issues on par with economic justice because he believes it undermines the real solution.

Bernie has spouted this theory for over 4 decades. He has helped to propagate this nonsense. And his supporters, knowingly (some), unknowingly (others) are once again leaving whole groups of people out.
